Full credit to our boys they've really stuck it to the Wallabies in the first ten minutes of this second half.

How there was no yellow card for continual infringement..... four penalties in a row when Ireland were pounding on the Oz line is terrible refereeing.

Had to happen, we know 14 men for so long cannot win even against a shower like Saracens! Proud of the lads.
From the rolling glens of Antrim through the hills of Donegal we will stand and shout for Ulster as we win both scrum and maul from the lovely lakes of Fermanagh tae the shores of ould Lough Gall we will scream and shout for Ulster as we beat them one and all!

Ireland needing snookers to get to Semi Finals:

Need a huge BP win over Italy who lost to England by 1 point and turn round a 63 points difference re NZ who play the Baby Boks on Wednesday.

Moore’s try was a great individual effort showing some intelligent running .

But definitely not text book .

Loved the fact that the camera man behind the deadball line bought one of his dummies (about 43/44 seconds) and lost him momentarily as he panned right and Moore went left. :lol:

Ireland down to 14 men, red card to 2nd row Baird for a tackle with force to the neck.
I was only watching on my phone, so not the largest of screens. Reason officials gave for red was that initial contact was to the neck, but it looked to me (and several others posting on YouTube) that initial contact was to the shoulder and then slipped up to the neck. Anyone who was watching on larger screen confirm or refute either assertion?

Ref or TMO (not sure which) was certain it hadn't started on the shoulder, so ruled out yellow which would have resulted had that been the case. Was that correct?

Just askin' like!

Highlights on "youtube" Capt. including the red card incident .

Having watched it a few times there are mitigating circumstances -- the mismatch in height of the two players, the Australian player starts low and stays low , the Australian player turns his shoulder into the Irish player his arm seems to guide the Irish players arm upwards , the Irish player quickly removes his arm after contact.

The problem was the referee had already penalised Australia twice for high tackles and my feeling was he felt he had to stop high contact -- third time unlucky regardless of the colour of Jersey. The review took so long I felt the referee was forcing the TMO to support a red card.

But was definitely a card offence and given the game and age group the player was on a hiding to nothing .

To what extent the card influenced the result --in my opinion not to a great extent -- The irish defence looked leaky against the English in free play and when the ball went wide and Australia were going wide.
